Nine-year-old Philomena loves building miniature cities with her big sister, Helen. But when Helen gets engaged, what will become of their world? And who wants a weird new stepbrother? So Philomena fashions herself a new world from books, toys and found objects that come alive when she falls asleep. Will she retreat into her imagination, or can she open up to her newly blended family? Brought to adventurous life through Manual Cinema’s (LEONARDO!, 2022) signature fusion of actors, puppets, live music and miniatures, THE MAGIC CITY encourages us to build bridges rather than walls.
